I really miss their plantains and collard greens but now they have a lot of tandoori and curries for lunch. It's oddly a very large space and I am honestly not sure how they stay in business so I'm rounding up my review to a four because I want them to succeed. From the outside the entrance is kind of hard to find because it looks like it's one, but it's in fact you have to go up the stairs to get to the main entrance. This is also a full service bottle shop. You can buy desserts to go as well as alcohol. I'm not sure how much inventory they move but the lunch that I got was good. It was a lunch portion so it was under $20 for some naan and a rice with lamb. You could tell they did make it fresh to order which I really appreciated. All in all it's not a bad place for a quick bite. I do really miss their old menu pre-Covid.

We stopped by after visiting the bookstore next door, and we love the indoor/outdoor vibe of this small pizza spot. We quickly placed our order and were easily able to get a table even though it was busy! The staff was friendly and helped us with getting anything we needed. The pizza was phenomenal. Crunchy, cheesy, crispy pepperoni, and an amazing sauce, what more could you ask for? It was a 10/10! We will definitely be back!

The real star for me, however, was the maritozzi-- filled with coconut cream and a passion fruit curd! It is the main impetus behind me finally making my way to Doppio and it was extremely worth it. It's airly, lightly sweet, tart, and everything I wanted it to be! The food also came out fast, easy to pick up and take home. Another day I would love to get a glass of wine with friends here, the outside seating seems like it would be so nice on a warm day! All in all I will absolutely be back soon.

It's within the Johns Hopkins college campus & a neighborhood, so parking is really horrible. I ended up parking in a non spot and putting my hazards on. It's a cute little, but spacious place located next to an airport building. It's on the corner and has a nice little outside seating area with about 5 tables. Inside is bigger than it looks and has a nice amount of seating as well. Since my time was limited, I didn't really get to explore the menu like I wanted, so I ordered a hazelnut latte and a ham & cheese croissant. Their croissants looked so good, I wanted one of each. They also had several toasts on their menu. I'll have to go back for sure! Th service was regular, you order, they tell you how much you owe and you pay. I got in my car and couldn't wait. My first bite was like a bite into heaven. Every bite was the same way, so delicious & delicate. I wish I had two. The latte was perfect, just the right amount of hazelnut. Kanom Cafe is a must try!

My favorite was the tomato bisque soup which had a lot of vegetables and some tasty bread served with it. The veggie omelette was prepared just right and not over- or undercooked. I would highly recommend the beet salad. Be sure to get the large size whenever you get a choice, since you get a lot more than the smaller size for a modest additional amount. Nearly all of the tables were taken for most of Sunday morning and there was also takeout, showing how popular it has become.

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

I was really impressed by the variety of items, the delicious smell, and the welcoming atmosphere. There was a small line outside, but it moved very quickly. Since it's a small place, only about six people are allowed inside at a time. I ordered the banana pudding, tuna salad sando, and crab dip bagel . Everything tasted delicious, especially the crab dip bagel even better than I expected!! The banana pudding was very good, and I really loved the tuna salad sando. You could taste all the fresh ingredients, and the bread was absolutely delicious. Overall, it was a great experience. Ethan was very nice, friendly, and helpful.

I realized that their online ordering was actually quite easy and their pick up hours were a bit more accessible than I remember them being. I ordered my sourdough loaf online a few days in advance for a Thursday pick up. I stopped in around 3pm and the loaf was quickly wrapped up for me. I asked if it could be sliced like the white bread loaf can but I was informed that the classic sourdough loaf is too large to fit in the slicer. I also love the fact that they offer a pay what you can program and a pay it forward option. And judging by their fundraising for important causes, this is a business I will continue to support. For $7, I thought it was a great deal for such a large and beautiful loaf. It froze and reheated very well too so none of it went bad. I wish I could try more of the menu but I should probably play it safe. If you're gluten intolerant and tend to be able to tolerate sourdough, I definitely recommend giving their classic loaf a try.
